Important Note: This extension will NOT help you access videos from sites like YouTube or Netflix.
This extension intercepts visited web page's network requests and identifies all m3u8 video stream URLs. When a m3u8 URL request is found, it is displayed in a box that overlays the visited page (see image above). Also, you can open the extension's popup window to view and open the first and last m3u8 URLs found for each site.
For example, I use this extension mostly to identify video streams from live TV news streaming pages, and if they use m3u8 files for the stream, I can take that URL and open it separately in another browser window or with other video playing/recording programs like VLC, Kodi, or Jaksta Media Recorder.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
